Al-Hidayah: The Guidance: Volume II

For the first time ever, this translation fully reveals the primary reference of Islamic law for the last 800 years—the Hidayah. Revered as one of the most widely read books in the Muslim world—second only to the Qu'ran—its knowledge has been likened to a mysterious code, accessible only to those who study Islam. Its success has been attributed to its unique methodology, combining the statement of rules with the case method of instruction. Eloquently translated into English along with commentary and notes, this fascinating edition sheds new light on one of the most sought-after volumes in the history of Islam.
